  • Navigating the Immigrant Experience: A Conversation with Krishnni Khanna
    Aug 5 2024
    In this episode of The Tragedy Academy Podcast, host Jay Hicks welcomes Krishnni Khanna, a 16-year-old author and TEDx speaker from India. Krishnni shares her journey of immigrating to the United States in 2017, detailing the emotional challenges and cultural adjustments she faced as a young child. The discussion touches on her book 'I Am Not Who You See,' which delves into her personal experiences and offers insights on mental health and wellness for teens and preteens. Krishnni emphasizes the importance of expressing emotions, being authentic, and finding supportive friendships while sharing her future aspirations in psychology and neuroscience. Key Takeaways 🌍 Immigrating to a new country can be a challenging experience, especially for children who have to leave behind their friends and familiar surroundings. 🗣️ Finding an outlet to express emotions is crucial for mental well-being, whether it's talking to someone or writing them down. ⚠️ Negative words and experiences can have a lasting impact on one's self-perception, but it's important to recognize that they do not define who you are. 🧠 Studying neuroscience or psychology can provide a deeper understanding of the brain and human behavior and help make a positive impact on mental health. 🤝 Building strong and supportive friendships is essential for personal growth and happiness. Embrace your authentic self, and don't seek validation from others. 💪 Find coping mechanisms to navigate challenges, such as living with ADHD. 📚 Books can make a difference and impact people's lives. 🎓 Choose a college that fulfills your academic and social needs. 🔥 Be true to yourself and pursue your passions to affect change in your own way.

In 2022, she created Detoximind (www.detoximind.com), a student-led movement through which Krishnni and her team bring peer-based support to teens and youth grappling with stress, shame, exclusion, and isolation. She currently resides in Austin, Texas, with her parents and their puppy, Yuki. Krishnni's first novel, "I Am Not Who You See," was launched in June 2024.

A practiced student of the human and the divine, AmiLynne unites the practical with the incorporeal, guiding clients as they connect with who they’ve always been but simply forgotten along the way. A published author, TEDx speaker, and steadfast seeker herself, AmiLynne is dedicated to the healing, liberation, and awakening of all that lives. AmiLynne Carroll, Truth – freshly discovered in the Now of Being. AmiLynne does not refer to herself as a coach but rather as a Travel Partner who guides and empowers each individual to find their voice, their core beliefs, their healing, and their path forward. In essence, AmiLynne helps remind clients who they have been all along, having simply forgotten along the way. Traditionally, life coaching and spiritual direction are handled as separate areas of one's life and often by guidance from separate professionals. A life coach and a spiritual director both ask open-ended questions, listening for significance beyond the words you say to help you reflect on your life. In working with AmiLynne, one receives spiritual support in parallel to addressing basic life questions rooted in a belief that our very life originates from a spiritual source. By creating a space that is safe to explore the beliefs, stories, and questions that have led each to where they are, AmiLynne empowers clients to create an authentic life plan forward that surpasses the standard 'How To' revealing an active plan toward "How Do I." Authentic, conscious transformation is the inner result allowing the outward results to manifest in most unimaginable and serendipitously spiritual ways.
